All
academic work at CC is covered by the Honor Code (http://www2.coloradocollege.edu/Students/Pathfinder/Policies/Academic/HonorSystem.html).
In this course, the Code requires that all sources, other than your own
invention, for your written work be acknowledged properly, and that you work
independently of each other when an assignment (for example a paper) requires
that. Faculty will be clear in
their expectations, and you should make sure to ask when in doubt, as well as to
write a form of the honor statement on each submitted assignment.
